  3. My surgeon thought that may be the issue but its something the surgeon did. I did have muscle weakness and problems getting up and down stairs but its getting better. I am very good with getting my protein in and my Vitamins. Its from a mistake that happened during my gallbladder surgery
  4. First I want to thank you all for reading and the comments. I want to answer a few questions...when my gallbladder stopped working it started as a postnasal sinus drip along with really bad reflux and the foamies. I couldn't poop either and then I couldn't keep anything down for longer than 2 minutes. Now it may be different for others. I had my blood work done several times and my b12 is actually pretty good and my surgeon wanted to make sure that it wasn't a defeciency. So I'm good on the vitamins. I am having an MRI of my back since I had surgery on it in 2005. I also have to have a EMG done because they think a nerve was cut and there may be some nerve damage. As a matter of fact when I went to my follow up appt and asked him why I was numb, he said it was probably a nerve. When I first tried to get a MRI they said I had a clamp still in me and that the MRI machine would pull it out but my neurologists got my surgical report and it said I didn't so we are dealing with a major cover up. But I will continue to move on and stay POSITIVE! Thank you all again:) Jessica

  6. I was sleeved on December 8, 2011 and I must say it has been rocky. Not even 8 weeks after my gallbladder had to come out. I thought I was ok until I started having trouble walking and my stomach, legs,and thighs went completly numb. My lady parts are numb as well as my breast so I had to get a attorney because they think something went wrong during the surgery. But, on a POSITIVE note I came from 412 to 311 in less tha 6 months. I'm praying that my walking goes back to 100% so I can finally hi8t the gym. I have a MRI scheduled fot Monday so we can figure out what this guy did..thanks for reading:)
